You'll never take my chocolate whole milk away from me

 

[red731]

Every species communicates. Humans just can't understand all of their language.



Somehow I dont think your ancestors hundreds of years ago would take away calves from their mothers so that they could suck from a cows teat instead.

If they wanted milk it probably came from their own mothers.

I still wonder who came up with the perverted thoughts of wanting to suck from a cow, and was then able to convince others it was a good idea.

Maybe people in impoverished areas who were dying from starvation. You'll see very poor villages in Africa with goats, not cows, but still.

I don't think it's a modern idea.

The whole 'only human adults drink milk' thing is kind of silly considering plenty of other species will and would drink milk if they had the capability of getting it. Looks at cats for instance, they love that shit.

Humans(at least some of us) have evolved the tremendously advantageous trait of retaining the ability to digest one of the most energy and nutrient rich food sources there is without side effects. This is a good thing, not a negative.

There is a reason lactase persistence has spread so far so rapidly.

Plus it is yummy, and can be made into other yummy things like cheese and yogurt and ice cream.

Honestly what is this obsession with animals being the pinnacle of life. Yeah animals don't drink milk so it's unnatural! Animals also eat their own babies! So nutritious and natural!

You wanna live like a pig go ahead. I'm a human and I do what I want,when I want.

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

works for me.

I'm lactose intolerant.

 

[KevinRo]

You're drinking cow tit milk. Thank about that for a second.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Here's a good video about why milk is one of the best foods on earth: https://vimeo.com/25615524

 

[hirokazu]

Jezebel's never heard of evolution. We should also be living in caves. Because fuck houses, it's unnatural. Animals don't live in fucking houses. What the fuck are houses for?

 

[Disorientator]

Reminds me of Snatch.

Tommy: You shouldn't drink that stuff anyway.[looking at the milk Turkish is drinking]
Turkish: Why, what's wrong with it?
Tommy: It's not in sync with evolution.
Turkish: Shut up.
Tommy: Cows have only been domesticated for the last eight thousand years. Before that, they were running around mad as lorries. The human digestive system hasn't got used to dairy products yet.
Turkish: Well fuck me Tommy. What have you been reading?
Tommy: Let me do you a favour. [takes the milk off Turkish's hand and throws it out the window and it hits a car behind them followed by screeching tires and a loud crash]
Both:[Look at each other] Whoops.

Snatch - The Evolution of Dairy

 

[jmdajr]

Troll article

 

[Red Comet]

This is nonsense. Humans developed the ability to drink milk from our Neolithic ancestors with strong enough digestive systems to survive and pass on their superior genes. Same thing with alcohol. We should not deny this gift that evolution has given us.

Snatch - The Evolution of Dairy

There is only one way to force the human race to adapt!

*keeps on drinking milk*

 

[Krauser Kat]

Milk is pretty fucking disgusting. Considering unless you watched a farmer milk and then boil it, you are drinking the blood and puss and scabs from over worked trapped dairy cows. Which is then pasteurized into the shit you are drinking.

Soy milk does a pretty good job, but i love cashew and flax milk to.

 

[munchie64]

Local Australian milk can be some good shit.

 

[ced]

I always think Jezebel is a porn site.

So what are we supposed to put in our cereal?

 

[dankir]

Been drinking almond milk for the past 2 and half years now. Cow milk for humans is weird.

 

[whitehawk]

I believe this is partially true. We aren't supposed to have the enzymes to digest milk, but over time we developed the ability to digest it. That's why so many people are lactose intolerant. I'm muddy on the details. This is from when I thought I was LI as a kid. Luckily I'm not.

 

[PlayALLtheGames]

Adults should not be writing these kinds of articles.

I use milk for cereal and protein shakes. What the fuck else would I use?

 

[Veritigo_X]

Lactose intolerant people always come off as jelly. They always bring up the "No other species can digest milk after babyhood" fact too. Yeah, well humans are the only animals that build skyscrapers and are capable of flying to the moon. Just because other animals don't do it doesn't mean we shouldn't.

 

[HideyoshiJP]

Ugh. Animals don't cook muscle tissue before they eat it either, so adults shouldn't eat cooked meat.

Well there are some gross motherfuckers who eat meat less than well done.

 

[Red Mage]

It's Jezebel... and to answer that caption/edit. Yes, WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?! WHY WOULD YOU EVEN THINK TO---- x_x;

I'm of the opinion that Jezebel has reached the point it's hurting the feminist cause. And now they're hurting the anti-milk cause.

Haha, wow, is this from something?

 

[thesoapster]

Well there are some gross motherfuckers who eat meat less than well done.

Just had steak and eggs for breakfast. Medium rare, baybeee.

 

[chaosaeon]

Annnnd this about sums it all up. Just saw this last week, now it's even more funny after that article.

[SquiddyCracker]

Let me guess, cream and butter is still fine?

Yeah, thought so.

 

[LyleLanley]

Been drinking almond milk for the past 2 and half years now. Cow milk for humans is weird.

You can't milk an almond.

 

[Van Owen]

probably already posted but oh well

 

[CorvoSol]

considering how many delicious things dairy has given us and how perfectly it complements shit, no way.

I mean, the first guy to try drinking cow milk was probably a little sketchy, but still "nobody else is doing it!" on a species scale is really, really dumb.

 

[Bisnic]

While we're at it, adults should not eat fast food. Do you see other animals eat fast food?

Edit: Well, other than raccoons and gulls and maybe some other i'm missing.

Oh well, lol. I looked it an idiot now too. Point is, they weren't "made" to eat fast food just like humans werent "made" to drink cow milk.

 

[winjet81]

I love milk, but it is admittedly gross to think that it's nothing more than a tall glass of ice cold cow secretions.

What's equally absurd is how there was a dark era in the 50s, 60s, and 70s where breastfeeding infants was considered disgusting, in light of the availability of chemically concocted formula.

Even today, breastfeeding is an uneasy subject for lots of people, yet drinking a glass of cow's milk is considered wholesome and natural.

 

[Guamu]

I am a doctor educated by the School of Common Sense and the University of What Is Wrong With You. Let me help you see the light.

Well there goes the last bit of "I'll hear you" that I had. Can't take this one seriously

 

[SigmasonicX]

I love milk, but it is admittedly gross to think that it's nothing more than a tall glass of ice cold cow secretions.

And meat comes from dead animals.
And honey is bee secretions.
And plants eat worm shit.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Fuck that. I need my cereal and cookies with my milk.

Breast pumps make it so you really don't have to. But its definitely encouraged at the hospital. In fact my wife and I would have felt like assholes if we didn't use breast milk. She had difficulties with it as well.

The folks who have a problem with it are scared of seeing boobies in public.

 

[evangd007]

First thought: What is Jezebel and what makes them the authority on what I can eat?

*goes to wikipedia*

Owner: Gawker Media

Well, that explains everything.

 

[Ivan 3414]

You're drinking cow tit milk. Thank about that for a second.

I eat cow.

Not much different.

 

[3N16MA]

You're drinking cow tit milk. Thank about that for a second.

I did think about it and I don't see the big deal considering I also eat various parts of their body.

 

[maquiladora]

Jezebel certainly does some...eyes-catching headlines.

How I Found Self-Worth in a Pool of Maggots and Left the Man I Loved

 

[Lord Thrappleper The 49th]

I've been toying with the concept of selling coffee thats cold, maybe with ice.

Milk is great. We as humans do a lot of unnatural stuff so that in of itself is bullshit.

Iced coffee and iced tea and anything iced derivative of a hot drink is an abomination and should not be welcomed within society.

Good luck prying this away from me.
Not a chance.

And?

Hilarious how separated we have become from the food we eat as a people

Where the fuck do you buy milk from....been to many dairy farms and there is no blood, puss or scabs in milk


I feel stupid even responding to this

 

[FO-totality]

It's fucking Jezebel. You expect decent, well-thought out articles to come from there? lol

 

[speculawyer]

Adults should not be reading Jezebel.

 

[HarryHengst]

I use milk for cereal and protein shakes. What the
fuck else would I use?

Chocolate milk for that sweet, sweet taste.

 

[block tower]

yea drinking milk is weird af to begin with, but adults who still drink it are even weirder. i agree with jezebel on this.

 

[PsychBat!]

Adults should not be reading Jezebel.
